    So there are a zillion of these, including ones that do what yours does. But that being said, I'm going to always upvote every single one of them because this is better and more important that what the big companies are doing across the board.

      Thank you! Would love to hear which ones you've used. Working with local files without anything going to the cloud was the main thing I wanted. I tried Jan, OpenWork, Chatbox and Lobe, and couldn't get that working well in any of them. If there's one I missed it would be great to check it out!!

        In PasClaw, I specifically built it to do local embedding and other local only functionality. Whether it works well or not yet is another story.

        Definitely check out Osaurus for macOS and Windows. Heavily privacy focused with e2ee iOS and iPadOS tethers.

    Why does it have to be JS? With all this AI, why can't we ship native apps.

    Looks great. One thing I am missing is the ability to change the installation directory for the models. For space reasons, I want them to be on a different partition.

      Good call. Are you on PC/Mac/Linux?
      • laughing_snyder 18 minutes ago
        Linux. I saw you support HOB_USER_DATA, which is great. But I want my config to remain in .config/Hob and only move the models (or whatever else needs lots of space) to another disk/directory.

        Edit: Actually I think HOB_USER_DATA is enough for my use case.

      This doesn't seem to be open source? They link a GitHub account, but I don't see the repo for this tool.

        Correct, they’re closed source and you can’t opt out of analytics
